29: (BEST OF) This Chapter Is Personal: The Power in Saying “I Want More”

Jasmene opens up about something she’s never shared publicly before—her decision to freeze her eggs. This isn't your typical business podcast moment. It’s an unfiltered, honest conversation about fertility, timing, ambition, letting go of control, and the silent shame many women carry behind closed doors.  Joined by Jessica Hurley, the two get real about what it means to be a strong woman in business while still making space for softness, love, and personal evolution. Conversations about dating as a high-achieving woman, to the emotional cost of always leading, they unpack how hard it can be to hold space for both the CEO and the woman within. This one’s for the multi-hyphenate woman navigating growth, uncertainty, and the quiet desire for more—on her own terms.
